So I researched my ancestry and found out that in 1750 my family was full blooded Senegambian and Guinean. Now I feel really empowered and wish I could visit those days for like 1 week
They were probably practicing muslims aswell who got stripped of their identity & religion, may Allah grant your brave ancestors the highest rank of paradise, much love from a somali brother ❤️🇸🇴
I congratulate the tour guide he did a great job explaining our history and our ancestors journey thank you for sharing it was emotional but very educational 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The tour guide did an excellent job in tell the story of the Island and slavery. I hope that the tourists rewarded him with a good tip. He deserved it!
Kunta Kente is a fictional character written by a white man who sued Alex for stealing his work, and fictional story, and won! 🤣 So, we have slave amusement parks now? How is this tangibly helping Black Americans and giving them jobs, resources except a bunch of foreigners in their country? Making money off your so-called ‘history’ based on a made up story by white man at that! 🤣
This is not an English test or exam. I understood all he said and well audible. Everybody who speaks English understood his explainasion. #To those worrying about his English#
Painful history, oh my! It's really painful. I remember I watched a movie about Kunta during my teenage years. When we watched, it had to be in a secret place otherwise we would be in trouble. May the spirits of our ancestors rest in peace though they knew no peace in real life. May the Lord God remember them in the afterlife. 😭😭😭😭
I am from T&T when I was a child around 7or 8 yrs old, the schools showed the students the slave Movie ( ROOTS ) omg KUNTA KINTEH was really a strong man and he was beaten so badly to change his name, so sad to watch what the slaves went through 😭😭😭
They must’ve been burning up with fever, sick, in pain, terribly uncomfortable, afraid and heartbroken. Tortured and abused by these demons in every way. We must always remember and honor them.
How is it that he knows so much about this tragedy in such details. I was told years ago by Africans that they did not know what happened to the slaves. Apparently Africans are now doing the research and learning about slavery. No more denial! Remember my sister's and brothers, God said this would happen. Our disobedience to God brought us to this place. Let us continue to ask God for forgiveness and ask for His Mercy. Praise The Most High.
He learnt it. The curriculums (neo colonialism) made sure I lot of it is not taught in our schools. I've learnt more about the transatlantic slave trade in my adult life than I did throughout my elementary school and university years.
A journey to remember! Thank you for sharing, and I hope to visit this site as I have been to other ones and as you mentioned the Ancestors connect with your spiritual energy. The prayer for tribute was beautiful and I am grateful for your video. Amen.
A shame the Gambian govt has made no attempt to restore this place. It is withering away terribly and in another 20yrs or more there will be no history to tell

Detailed explanation. This is the best video which is very explicit to the core. Please how can I have this guy's contact. Want to bless him with something
Get a taxi to the west side of Denton Bridge, leave the road to the right before the bridge, the boats are waiting for you. There are enough boats, and there is no schedule. The trip is many hours long, and the mangroves are beautiful, the boats comfortable, but you may prepare some cold drinks in an ice box. Don’t get ripped off: taxi driver, boat rental, stop at Lamin Lodge… they all know how deep your pockets are. They ask for 3500 dalasi per person (= $60 = rip off!) and will be glad to take 20 of you in the boat… just know that any boat will do it for something between 5000 and 10000 dalasi, regardless of the number of passengers. Ignore any person looking rasta, posing as guides, they’re bums who came for your money. Don’t take a guide - the Kunta Kinte story is invented, no “guide” can tell you more than what history tells. Instead, get informed beforehand and, when there, have a thought for the people who suffered, rather than give money to those who profit of your visit. If you have money to donate, do it wisely. Look around you in the streets: poverty is around you, life is very hard. Help a mom raising kids, instead of giving $$$ to impostors.
@@peterachina3887 don't allow us? Are we still slaves? If so, then no won't or cant break the spells of the bible and the Koran. If not then we rebel. Or remain captive.
We still throw libations in my village in Nigeria - and we still go to church. Our minds were fucked up the most though, part of their demorilization strategy.
So much suffering at the hands of white people… I’m so sorry…. This is never okay. We SHOULD feel guilty for what we have put other groups of people through. Thank you for sharing this part of history I did not know 🙏🏻
Is sad government don't maintenance this beautiful island waw their dont value of a island hope rich man will buy this place build a best hotel there will generate billion of money beautiful island
Someone please, explain how so many of my ANSCESTORS WERE TRANSPORTED FROM ONE ISLAND TO ANOTHER TO SHIPPED OUT LIKE BANANAS AND OTHER COMMODITIES, Without the knowledge of its LEADERS/HEADMEN/ KING/ WHO WAS IN CHARGED? There are GAPS SOMETHING IS MISSING/ ONE SIDED, How could so many people were stolen, from what or how the HOLOCAUST IS BEEN TOLD it means that entire villages were DECIMATED AS AN OFFSPRING OF AN ENSLAVED PEOPLE I HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW THE FULL TRUTH. WHO WERE IN COLLABORATION WITH THE EUROPEANS. TELL ME PLEASE. THANK YOU. AS WE SAY IN JAMAICA WHEN CERTAIN THINKS IE CRIME COMMITTED WE KNOW WHEN IT IS AN INSIDE JOB. THIS TAKEN OF OVER 600000000MILLION PERSONS FROM THE WEST COAST OF AFRICA IS HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS 😢😢😢😢🔥
its a different story every time you go to the island and it was always an old lady or man that would tell the story but a few years ago the younger generation realised there was money to be made telling the story so the old people got told to stay away and the young tour guides the better the story the bigger the tip,kunta kinte was not the first slave to be on the island and all slaves where shackled to stop them running,I spent 9yrs going to Gambia (I spent more time with locals in land)and was told a very interesting story when in George Town about how the Europeans got to know about slaves and how it was africans themselves who sold the first slaves to the white man.it was however the white mans greed took over and started stealing people and ripping them from their mother land .But there will always be a dived and it doesnt matter the colour of your skin hatred is hatred even if you think its justified and until people can just see human beings not colour or religion nothing will be fixed

Your family was beaten by a stronger tribe who showed them no mercy and traded them to the white man in exchange for some of his magical technology
Bullsh*t lol
I congratulate the tour guide he did a great job explaining our history and our ancestors journey thank you for sharing it was emotional but very educational 🙏🏼🙏🏼
That’s so beautiful that they end it with the prayers for our ancestors. Thank you for sharing.
I love that they renamed it after our brother Kunta Kinte. He lives on.

Why there's no guard rail along the bridge?
You can go and fix it
Lol 😂
Eye want to come but Eye would be scared to walk on that bridge lol
@@jillcabler2186 you’ve got to use your legs bro
No, they are waiting for China to come and build a beautiful bridge. Never fails.
Imagine being taken from your land in the midst of a WAR!!!!
It so beautiful and very sad history
Horrible past of new civilization . Good video .
A unspeakable tragedy. And to imagine that whites in the U.S. tell us to, "Get over it." smh
The nerve!
Sad story 😢😢😢😢
It's always sad indeed whenever the slave trade history is narrated. This is very sad
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
ครับผมดีใจทีได้รับชมอยากรู้ว่าเมื่อก่อนอะไรอย่างไงครับผม👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You must pour libation when you go to these sights. Water or rum.
The slave Master's Religions doesn't allow us to pour libation.
They killed our Spirituality with both Islam and Christianity.
@@peterachina3887 don't allow us? Are we still slaves? If so, then no won't or cant break the spells of the bible and the Koran. If not then we rebel.
Or remain captive.
We still throw libations in my village in Nigeria - and we still go to church. Our minds were fucked up the most though, part of their demorilization strategy.
I have seen kunta kinteh serial but never heard about the small Island
What about us that was taking to the Caribbean
So much suffering at the hands of white people… I’m so sorry…. This is never okay. We SHOULD feel guilty for what we have put other groups of people through. Thank you for sharing this part of history I did not know 🙏🏻

And we still worship their God.
